Tried searching the forums, google and couldn't find any helpful info.
From what I managed to scrap it's a new band or modem that comes with 2.3.6 but I'm not sure at all.
Any clarification will be great.
Ya its just the new modem that samsung released with their latest ota update to 2.3.6

So should I flash a rom that supports it and flash it as well? Is it a lot better then the 2.3.5 modem?

Some people like it and it works well, some people drop data and calls and all the time with it.

I have just received ANOTHER refurbished G2x from T-mobile because I thought there was an issue with my other phone but it seems as though my problem is consistent with both devices...
When first using my phone, all works fine. However after I rooted it, I tried installing MUIU, and Hellfire (ICS) and when trying to make a call on both of these rooted ROMs, I get this loud, distorted sound along with no transmission between my phone and anyone I call. Has anyone else come across this issue? what am I missing?
Thanks for the help!
Wrong baseband for those roms you need to use the new baseband zip from owains thread in his O.P.
Try searching around a little next time you'd find your answer easily.

I get the same exact problem as the OP only difference is I have been on the new baseband 21y for like a month now I have even checked in my system info and Getril just to make sure it's sticking and it is.
Got it working, for some reason I had to reflash the baseband *shrug*

The V21y baseband from March 2012 is not compatible with many custom roms outside of Nightly. There is a V21y baseband fix for your audio from Owain but calls via bluetooth won't work anymore.
My solution has been to install the rooted V21y stock rom and then customize it from there. Everything works that way and there are no issues at all.
I tried everything here but no luck. Does anyone have the baseband zip so I can flash it? I searched and can't seem to find it,

Yea you still have to flash it unless it's compatible with 21y

I haven't had a G2X in a while, pretty much since the last baseband update was out, I have a couple of questions:
-Is the new baseband OTA? or do I have to download the kdz file and go that route?
-I don't remember how to root this device, can i go for the new baseband and THEN root? Also is the new baseband fixed to be able to work with ICS and JB roms without any fixes?
Thanks.

Nah, you have to use LG's software update tool. You need to be running stock in order to do so. I'd hook you up with a link but unfortunately I'm a new kid on the block. Just do a search and you'll find it with ease.

You can indeed upgrade to the new baseband and then root. Some ROMs will be baked to be able to handle it while others will require you to just flash Owain's fix.
Hope this helped.

Ah that's right, the LG update tool, I forgot about that. I've had a couple G2X's and I'm not a noob to the device, just been a while and rooted other phones so I forgot.
I'll worry about it when I get around to it. thanks.
I updated my BB OTA, just gotta be on stock rom and recovery..

The one I'm getting today is a used g2x, but its not rooted, so obviously stock. It probably is updated already, but who knows.
Hey!
I just flashed my i9000 to CM10, and its a thing if beauty. Except for my data signal strength. I have looked through the provided list and cannot find a modem recommended for Bell Canada. Any suggestions? And whats the best way to install/upgrade modem software? Thanks a bunch!!!
(edit) Also, how do I find out what modem version I am currently using, so I dont try it again if trial-error comes up?

Flashed UGKG3, much better signal strength (according to display bars).
Thanks for looking though!!
Sorry, I'm a total noob. I don't really understand how the "Baseband Version" factors into the ROM/phone operation. Can someone explain it? I have a pretty good understanding of computers but when it comes to the phone it seems very black-boxy -- I'm still learning. My underlying question is:
The BoneStock ROM says: "BoneStock v3.0 (VRBMF1) 6/23/13", my phone currently has VRBMB1. Can I flash the BoneStock ROM on my phone or do I need to upgrade the Baseband Version somehow before I do that? I saw links to different revisions on the BoneStock thread but there isn't a whole lot of explanation about how to use them.
Thanks,
-Greg
Yes No problems. I ran mb1 on bonestock.

Cool, do you know what the Baseband firmware does? Should I flash my firmware to VRBMF1?
I flashed mine mf1 because it really did help signal and data speeds. In my opinion it is worth it to flash the mf1

Did you flash it before flashing BoneStock or does it matter what the order is?
Modem has no relation to what ROM you are on. You can flash whichever you want first, doesn't matter.

Hi everyone,
My verizon galaxy s3 right now has a baseband of I535VRLHE.
First I was wondering which baseband is most recent, I have heard of MB1, MF1, etc. I know where to get these software updates but I have not found out how to actually update the baseband. Right now, I am jumping between many roms but as of this moment I am on an unofficial cm 10.1 build. They suggest getting on MF1 modem, but I really have no idea how do it.
Thanks for the help,
PS: I looked for quite a while so please don't tell me to keep looking or something like that.

Do I need to wipe anything for flashing it? Also, its ok to flash baseband updates with a custom rom installed?
And these will make my radios stronger, and thus my signal stronger?\
Thanks

What modem do you guys suggest flashing to. Right now I am on I535VRLHE and by my understanding that is extremely outdated. So just to make sure again no wiping anything, no formatting, no anything? And I should be flashing an update in either twrp or cwm? I know these questions sound stupid when I said I flash roms daily, but I really do not want to risk bricking my beloved s3 hahaha.
Thanks for taking your time to help me.
from what i understand the modem that works best for you will depend mostly on location. they might get better as they update, but i get teh same signal on the latest as I did on a modem from a few updates ago.
you can download the all in one packages here

reboot into recovery, then flash, reboot back to the ROM. if youre worried, make a backup. things can always go wrong i guess.
Ok thank you again, another question haha sorry. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1788313&page=6 In this thread, the first few pages say to flash via odin and what not none of them confirm being able to flash through recovery. Have you ever flashed a radio through recovery?
Also what advantages does an AIO have compared to just the modem.

You need to do a Google search for "i9300 xda" because we can not help you in the SCH-I535 forums.
